Thoughts on one year anniversary of ESR

[rrppve]

I can somewhat relate to this thread, as I just ER'd this year. I was CEO of a small firm and only went to the office one day a week for the five previous years. Haven't fully replaced the business challenges. Am looking for board directorships to do some of that. Took on a part-time consulting assignment, but found that it wasn't worth the intrusion on my time and having to respond to a client's schedule. What I have found to be intellectually challenging are the online classes from Coursera and EDx. Even with all my additional free time, I find it hard to keep up with the classes.
